Additional security measures

We are aware that some customers are having issues making payments online. This is due to Visa and Mastercard now enforcing two-factor authentication on all payments in order to increase security.

If you are having issues making an online payment, please contact your bank.

Mobility parking

A mobility park is a specially designated car parking space for disabled people. You must have a mobility card to use a mobility park.

Mobility cards can only be used if the driver or any passenger is disabled and the approved disabled parking permit is prominently displayed in the vehicle (expiry date must be visible) and also registered with Council. Mobility cards are issued by Mobility Parking NZ.

Mobility cards are also able to be used in standard car parks.

Fees for mobility parking

If you have a mobility permit, we kindly ask that you register it with our parking team as soon as possible. Please provide a copy of your mobility permit along with your vehicle's registration. This will allow us to consider your eligibility for double parking time should an infringement occur.

Once your permit is registered and you're parked in an on-street car park (excluding parking buildings), the following applies:

  • In all-day parking spaces (no time limit), you only need to pay for half the duration of your stay. For example, if you arrive at 9am and plan to stay until 5pm, you only need to pay for 4 hours.
  • Payments in 15-minute increments can be made using cash at a cash machine. Please note that card payments at parking machines require a minimum payment of $1.00, so you'll need to use coins at a cash machine to pay in 15-minute increments, or via the PayMyPark app.
  • In time-restricted zones, you are allowed to stay for double the posted time, up to a maximum of 2 extra hours. For example:
    • P15 = 30 minutes
    • P30 = 1 hour
    • P60 = 2 hours
    • P120 = 4 hours
    • P180 = 5 hours (max extension reached)
